"Career portability and the seniority system?" So by that logic... the pilots at Delta and American, who are much less likely to leave than Alaska pilots, must be worth less? And yet somehow they knew that the "average up" BS wasn't good enough and demanded something better.
"Career portability and the seniority system" doesn't explain why 82% of us settled for contract language with a hole in it big enough to drive a bus through.
